Ashina Nuji knelt devoutly for a long time. The statue of the goddess was still the statue of the goddess, and the Goddess Creek was still the Temple of the Goddess, with no difference from before.
No goddess appeared, no miracle happened.
Ashina Nuji had a gloomy look on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking. However, a middle-aged man with a beard behind him couldn't help but speak.
"My great prince, you said the goddess is omnipotent and that praying to her would definitely bring blessings and resolve the epidemic. Why is it that it's of no use now?"
"Could it be that the goddess is completely useless?"
"Or maybe there is no such thing as a goddess in this world!"
“The eldest prince may not know yet, but the continuous heavy rain here has made people and livestock sick.
But Tingzhou and Xizhou have been flooded.
All the houses are now underwater, Tingzhou and Xizhou are finished!"
"If the goddess they believe in is truly powerful, how could they have watched two states being flooded? In my opinion, the goddess doesn't even exist. She was a deliberate stunt by the Prince of Chen to deceive the eldest prince!"
"The eldest prince is such a smart man, but he was deceived by Li Junyan's clumsy lies. How can he compete with other princes in the future and ascend to the throne?"
Originally, only one person was speaking, but perhaps his words touched the hearts of others, so the others also started talking.
In an instant, the quiet Temple of the Goddess became noisy, like a vegetable market.
These people accused Ashina Nuji one after another, and the crowd was very excited, but they did not notice that Ashina Nuji's face was becoming more and more gloomy and ugly.
Only after everyone had said everything they were thinking did they gradually quiet down.
Ashina Nuji slowly stood up and turned to look at them, "Are you done?"
"Say...I'm done."
The people who were extremely angry just now, now calmed down, finally remembered that their eldest prince was not a good-tempered person and would not allow anyone to disobey him.
Anyone who dared to speak like this before has been dragged out and beheaded.
After waking up, everyone trembled, their hearts full of regret, and looked at the person who spoke first with some blame.
The first person to speak was a middle-aged man with a beard named Hulunur.
Although his name contains the character "er" (er), which seems very cute, in fact, he has nothing to do with cuteness.
As a nation of horsemen, most of them are very talented in horse riding and archery.
In this situation, Hulunur showed greater talent than others. When he was still a child, he could ride a galloping horse and kill prey hundreds of meters away.
As he grew older, his strength grew.
When he was young, there was a war between the Turks and the Great Zhou. He fought against ten enemies alone on the battlefield, bravely killing the enemies and making countless military achievements.
It was in these years that the Great Zhou and the Turks reached a truce and the two countries coexisted peacefully, and Hulunur seemed to have become a little more accommodating.
But this is just an appearance.
Those who know him know that neither his personality nor his temper has changed over the years.
Even though everyone was staring at him with blaming eyes, Hulunur didn't care at all. His back was still straight, and his eagle-like eyes were staring at Ashina Nuji.
"Grand Prince, we are willing to follow you, and we hope you will not let us down. Don't believe in goddesses anymore. The crisis facing us Turks is a test from heaven. As long as we can survive it, we will become stronger.
And everyone in the so-called Tingzhou and Xizhou, including that mysterious Prince Chen, will die in this rain!"
He spoke so passionately that some people even looked at him with admiration.
Just when he was feeling proud of himself, Ashina Nuji turned around and looked at him.
Hulunur was not afraid and met Ashina Nuji's gaze directly. "Even if the prince is unhappy, I still have to say these words. We follow the prince and only hope that he can lead us on the right path, not--"
"Do you think you know a lot?" Ashina Nuji said coldly, "You only know that Tingzhou and Xizhou were flooded, but do you know that over a hundred large ships appeared in Tingzhou and Xizhou overnight, and the people of Tingzhou and Xizhou are all on the ships.
Not only are they living well, they also have food and drink. When they are sick, they have medicine. It is a magical medicine given by the goddess. It does not need to be boiled, just a small pill is needed. After taking it, the disease will be cured immediately. "
With every word Ashina Nuji spoke, Hulunur's face became more shocked.
But he was still a little reluctant to believe it, "How did the eldest prince know——"
Before he could finish, Ashina Nuji interrupted him, "Do you think this prince has gone there repeatedly and done nothing? If you can't even get this little bit of information, it's better for you to do it, Prince."
Hulunur was stunned for a moment, and then his back bent instantly.
He was so complacent just now, constantly pointing and talking at Ashina Nuji, but now his face is blushing with shame, and he just hopes that Ashina Nuji will stop looking at him.
Ashina Nuji indeed stopped staring at him and looked at everyone present.
"If you have a way to solve the epidemic, would this prince still need to ask the goddess for help?
You are all helpless and don't believe in the goddess. Do you want all the people of Turkic to die? By then, all the people of Turkic will be dead, and the Great Zhou will directly occupy our land. There will be no more Turkic people in this world. Is this what you want?"
